Confounder Analysis in Measuring Representation in Product Funnels
This paper discusses an application of Shapley values in the causal inference field, specifically on how to select the top confounder variables for coarsened exact matching method in a scalable way. We use a dataset from an observational experiment involving LinkedIn members as a use case to test its applicability, and show that Shapley values are highly informational and can be leveraged for its robust importance-ranking capability.

Mitigating Hidden Confounding Effects for Causal Recommendation
Recommender systems suffer from confounding biases when there exist confounders affecting both item features and user feedback (e.g., like or not). Existing causal recommendation methods typically assume confounders are …
Multi-Task LearningRecommendation SystemsFUNCK: Information Funnels and Bottlenecks for Invariant Representation Learning
Learning invariant representations that remain useful for a downstream task is still a key challenge in machine learning. We investigate a set of related information funnels and bottleneck problems that claim to learn in…
Representation LearningVariational InferenceMeasuring the effects of confounders in medical supervised classification problems: the Confounding Index (CI)
Over the years, there has been growing interest in using Machine Learning techniques for biomedical data processing. When tackling these tasks, one needs to bear in mind that biomedical data depends on a variety of chara…
AttributeGeneral ClassificationMultiple Causal Inference with Latent Confounding
Causal inference from observational data requires assumptions. These assumptions range from measuring confounders to identifying instruments. Traditionally, causal inference assumptions have focused on estimation of effe…
